Hi Geri! Just finished reading Sasha’s Dad. Such a GREAT story! The last chapter had me in tears. Thanks for bringing me back to Annapolis. Loved all the places you wrote about, made me wish I was back there again. The acknowledgement means so much. I was so surprised to see my name in your book. Can’t wait to read your next book…. All the best to the family.

Hi Geri from your friend in Canada! Moscow now? Good for you! I am now finished with my reserve duty and John has one year to go before he retires with 35 years of air force service. We don’t live very far from Toronto and everytime we drive by the Harlequin building I think of you!
We are still travelling a lot seeing a lot of your country this year: Boston, bus trips to New Hampshire, Vermont, Savannah and charleston. We are also cruising to Bermuda from NYC in the fall.
I will be following your blog! I really appreciate having my autographed copy of your book, A REndezvous To Remember like the First Lady does! Take care Geri!!!! A big hello to your hubby and family too. Belgium life seems so far away now!

Thanks Ashley and Debbie for posting comments. Debbie, it was the least I could do. The Baydale Walkers got me through our Annapolis tour and inspired SASHA’s DAD in more ways than one! You all will always have a special place in my heart.

Hi Madison–yes, you said it beautifully. The connection to history that resonates from such historically significant places is palpable and often overwhelming. I think writers are particularly aware of these kinds of “vibes.” Thanks for taking time to post, Madison!

Wow, what an awesome experience. Something I always find amazing is how different places have such different histories and experiences, it’s very easy to imagine that they are conscious beings that have been shaped by what has happened to them and in them. I remember walking in Washington D.C. for the first time, and just absorbing the feeling of how much happened there. Standing in the spot where Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his “I Have a Dream” speech, literally standing in the footsteps of so many great people who came before. I can imagine what it must have been like for you in Red Square. It’s almost like you can touch all the people who came before you, like you can suddenly feel a very real connection to things that maybe didn’t seem so real when you read about them in books, and you can mourn or celebrate with them very sincerely. You can see things in yourself that might be in common with those who came before, and you realize that even though you are just a very small person, you are part of something very big.

Thanks, Kathy. I love to share what I see around the world, be it in the States or Warsaw or Moscow. I’m very blessed to be able to live this life, and share it in my writing.
